Textile Narratives | Exhibition

Description

CityScape Community Art Space, 335 Lonsdale Avenue North Vancouver, BC V7M 2G3

October 19 – November 17. https://nvartscouncil.ca/events-exhibitions/textile-narratives/

Artists and communities have been using textiles to tell stories for thousands of years. This exhibition invites makers and artists who work with fibre, textiles, and surface design to rescue, repurpose, and recycle material to tell stories, communicate thoughts and ideas, and to convey messages and memories.

Through weaving, repurposing, and stitching, textile prompts us to ask: Why was this made? Who has touched this? What story does this tell? Textile creates narratives that can be read by everyone.
